QuickBooks Fundamentals Training

QuickBooks is a small business accounting package that organizes and tracks all your finances in one place, freeing you up to focus on the core of your business, not the bookkeeping.

Whether you're a business owner with no accounting experience or a CPA, QuickBooks gives you the tools you need to
simplify financial management and automate your routine business transactions. Rather than hunting through piles of invoices and files, you can use QuickBooks to see at a glance who owes you money, how your business is doing, and who is buying which products. Please note that this class covers the desktop version of Quickbooks, not the online service.

This QuickBooks training class enables you to make the most of QuickBooks. We'll show you how to view a snapshot of your business information, print
checks, issue purchase orders, track inventory, pay employees, and bill customers. In our QuickBooks training, you'll learn how to gain business insight
by generating reports and graphs of your financial, customer, vendor, product, and employee information.

Class taught using the Windows Desktop version. Please contact us if you use the Mac or Online version
